Been through mass destruction once, but once was not enough
|
Said we want a second chance, and all they say is tough
|
A world where science went too far, there's no way to survive
|
Why can't we get this thing straightened out, I want to stay alive
|
|
They burned and bombed the east and north and there's no place left to go
|
The sun belt's overcrowded, so let's annex Mexico
|
The peso's only worth a dime, but they've got all that land
|
No need for a civil war, we know they'll understand, right?
|
|
Is that how you like it?
|
|
Factories left unattended, crumbling to the ground
|
We tried to keep them running, but there's no more oil around
|
We used it all to fight a war that neither side could win
|
Vietnam was Little League compared to where we've been
|
|
Now we live in caves and huts, and we don't have pay TV
|
And everyone is signing up for the newest industry
|
Standard Oil goes solar power, all try to make a buck
|
So I'll sit around and smoke cigarettes, and I'll babble "What the fuck?"
